"The Idiot" is the only book I've read by him, but judging from it the guy wasn't half bad... I was pleasantly surprised when the book turned out to be an entertaining, interesting and sometimes even funny read instead of the über-cultural boring old tome I had expected.

"The Idiot" is the only book I've read by him, but judging from it the guy wasn't half bad... I was pleasantly surprised when the book turned out to be an entertaining, interesting and sometimes even funny read instead of the über-cultural boring old tome I had expected.

Yeah, I got hooked on him like that too.
I had to read "Crime and Punishment" for school, and I thought "Oh no, it's so long... this sucks."
Then I started reading it on a train when I was visiting relatives, and in the 3-hour ride I read almost the whole book.
After that when I came home I read them all, one by one.

Jack L. Chalker, especially his three Wellworld series. The first series is five books, though the first three were meant to be a single book. At that time, publishers wouldn't print such large SF&F books and insisted it be split.

The second trilogy picks up where the first left off, while the final two books are set much later and involve none of the characters from the first eight books.

"The Rings of the Master" is another excellent series, unlike so many book series it pretty well wraps up the tale in four fairly thick volumes.
